High Anxiety by Elijah Mann Lyrics
I don’t know if you can hear me
My ears are clogged, I’m I still screaming?
Is that me?
The silence I’m living in isn’t as kind as I thought it would be
Cuz all I’ve got is high anxiety
What’s the point of even speaking?
I’m waterlogged from al this sinking into myself
I've stuttered enough to know what I’m trying to say in its unedited honesty
But what does it give me? Just high anxiety
I’m grating my teeth
I’m scratching my side til it’s raw
But I’m not bleeding
I’m looking for calm in this nonsense
Everything’s bubbling up under my skin
Now pushing through panic’s like throwing the deck chairs off the titanic
Oh, I know this is only drop in the ocean that I’ve been drowning in
I’m still sinking
I don’t know if you can hear me
Cuz I can’t bear to hear myself anymore
There’s nothing left for me to fence in
These atomic nerves need a place to explore
But don’t try to slow me down
I gotta teach myself how to breathe
Through my high anxiety
Breathing through my high anxiety
My ears are clogged, I’m I still screaming?
Is that me?
The silence I’m living in isn’t as kind as I thought it would be
Cuz all I’ve got is high anxiety
What’s the point of even speaking?
I’m waterlogged from al this sinking into myself
I've stuttered enough to know what I’m trying to say in its unedited honesty
But what does it give me? Just high anxiety
I’m grating my teeth
I’m scratching my side til it’s raw
But I’m not bleeding
I’m looking for calm in this nonsense
Everything’s bubbling up under my skin
Now pushing through panic’s like throwing the deck chairs off the titanic
Oh, I know this is only drop in the ocean that I’ve been drowning in
I’m still sinking
I don’t know if you can hear me
Cuz I can’t bear to hear myself anymore
There’s nothing left for me to fence in
These atomic nerves need a place to explore
But don’t try to slow me down
I gotta teach myself how to breathe
Through my high anxiety
Breathing through my high anxiety
